Lapel/Collar pins

SmithNut · Jun 29, 2009

Over the years S&W has put out many different styles and shapes of collar/lapel pins. These are pretty neat as accoutrements or display accessories, and fun to collect.

This is, by no means, a complete assortment of what they've done over the years, if you have any post them here, I'd love to see em.

Man I really like them. Where did you find them, at gun
shows? I will have to start looking for those. Don

You gotta turn over a lot of rocks....

Don,
I've found some at gun shows, but mostly at S&W Collector get togethers or from other fellow collectors in trades. The annual S&WCA gathering is another good place. Some of the later ones can be had directly from S&W, either via their website or at their company store. Some were also given away at the SHOT show, lots of manufacturers give these little trinkets away, I've got several from companies like Ruger, Beretta, Glock and other non-firearms manufacturers.

Lapel pins or cufflinks?

I thought the gold one, farthest to the right top row was a cuff link?

At least, that was how I saw it used the time I saw it on Herb.

Definate possibility

There are a couple that have a small chain attached to the backing, and can certainly be used for both purposes, my thoughts were that they'd be a better tie tack than cuff links since these are not a traditional style of cuff link attachment and I'd be concerned about losing them.
Also, I don't have any pairs of any style, and no cuff link style shirts in any event....

You know, S&W also made Ties, I've missed out on a couple over the years and would dearly love to have one if anyone knows where to find one.

Smithnut is correct, as always.

Ah...

You are correct, mine is two tie tacks.

However, I sincerely believe that sets of identical cuff links were made to match this, as I distinctly remember them being worn.

A few of my pins

Bringing an old thread back for updates....

Just fixed the pic in the first post, the original was lost when Fototime went bust.

Since then, I've collected some additional "swag", including S&W key chains, etc. I'll get around to taking some pics over the Thanksgiving holiday.

Would love to see what you all have collected in this arena, please post some pics.

I would use them as tie tacks.

Here's mine not as many just acquired over the years.

First pic Smith & Wesson pins tie clips.

Second pic some cufflinks that I thought were cool.

IS THAT A PLEDGE PIN ON YOUR UNIFORM?

Ha! I only have a SIG pin that someone gave me once.

I do have a S&W "belt" watch - analog quartz. I never wear it.

My small assemblage…..

Very nice,they look great. I've been after something like this for a while. The ones sold are about 3cms long . I'm after some a little bigger. Had thought of trying to making some with my XYZ 3D printer in plastic and painting them. Just having got round to it yet.
